Karthys of Zezima – Dragon Cultist

Karthys of Zezima – Dragon Cultist

Elf, Human (Cleric, Sorcerer, Warlock)

Adorned in ornate ritual vestments and raising a newly hatched wyrmling aloft, Karthys commands the grid with fanatical authority. Intricately sculpted layered robes, chain tassels, and a dragon-scaled hood frame his charismatic stance as he channel arcane or divine power. Resting upon a scenic stone base complete with a clutches of unhatched eggs, this Artifact serves as a compelling centerpiece for cult leaders, dark spellcasters, or enigmatic party allies.

Tabletop Lore

A self-proclaimed “father of dragons,” Karthys of Zezima harbors grand delusions that make him a force not to be trifled with. Though his fervor often borders on raving lunacy, he possesses a terrifying ability to present himself as articulate, sane, and deeply charismatic when required. Lulling travelers, townfolk, and gullible acolytes into a false sense of security, he nurtures his scaly brood while expanding a devoted cult behind a mask of regal conviction.

Highlight
